Pictures really do not do the scale of Raystown lake justice. It is just massive. Absolutely massive.

Honestly the picture does not do the Vista justice. It's truly breathtaking.

This is such a small area of the lake. It truly is mind boggling.

I spent this past weekend at 7 points, it was cold at night. But the natural scenery was kinda life changing.

That's where we stayed too. In a loop with no shower. Long cold wet walk back to the site.

In the neighborhood of 100+ miles of undeveloped lakefront. It's wonderful being on the water and just not seeing anything but trees on the shore.

It really is crazy how untouched it is. I have been on Lake Hopatcong in NJ before and it is such a stark difference between some PA lakes.

We launched at Snyders Run on my 16ft Bass Boat. Spent the entire day up in the Rabbit Ears and we had no intention of heading any farther south just because of fuel concerns.
It is one thing to see it on a map, another to see it in person.

That has to happen pretty frequently. Even climbing up is no joke and people are usually drunk.

Actually Hawns Overlook, a short shirt walk from the Ridenour Overlook Parking lot.
